Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2601831A2] An elongated programmable heater unit for use in animal stables is disclosed, said heater unit comprising an elongated heating element (07) and an elongated reflector (06) for distribution of heat radiation from the heating element over a certain predefined area, such as the interior of a cave for piglets, so that a substantially uniform temperature may be obtained in said area. Furthermore, a wireless communication system (08, 15-20) for use in animal stables is disclosed, which system is arranged to be capable of communicating wirelessly, for instance via the Internet, with well-known communication devices, such as personal computers, handheld devices, smartphones and the like, and further arranged to be capable of radio communication over short distances with other systems or equipment, such as sensors (14), in the animal stable using well-known communication protocols, such as Bluetooth.
